Ingredients

  • White fish fillets (e.g., cod or tilapia) - 300 grams
  • Fresh parsley - 30 grams
  • Fresh cilantro - 30 grams
  • Garlic - 3 cloves
  • Ground cumin - 1 teaspoon
  • Ground coriander - 1 teaspoon
  • Paprika - 1 teaspoon
  • Cayenne pepper - 1/4 teaspoon
  • Lemon juice - 2 tablespoons
  • Olive oil - 3 tablespoons
  • Salt - 1 teaspoon
  • Black pepper - 1/2 teaspoon

Steps

  1. In a food processor, combine parsley, cilantro, garlic, cumin, coriander, paprika, cayenne pepper, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Blend until you have a smooth marinade.
  2. Place the fish fillets in a shallow dish and pour the chermoula marinade over them, ensuring they're evenly coated. Cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes.
  3. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  4. Remove the fish from the marinade and place it on the grill. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
  5. Once cooked, remove the fish from the grill and let it rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
